I found a loan broker on Bigger Pockets who assures me he can find a suitable lender, including gap funding to cover the cost of the down payment. 

I work in the Stowe area, and we absolutely have year round visitors, with the exception of April mud season and November stick season, though I have noticed more visitors without much of a break this year.

However, any sort of "advanced" financing/payment scheme carries more risk and requires a suitable buyer.. 

Does anyone use any sub 2 or LO contracts in Ohio that have been reviewed by attorneys for suitability to this state?

If it’s suitable for short-term rentals, you could sell exclusive rentals rights to a vacation rental company.

I did a research and I saw that average per night its not high - I guess there's a lot of STR because there's 3M visitors year (Per google).

After you do the sump pump (with several quotes) there are several types of flooring suitable for flooding that I would put down before carpet.

One of the BP members mentioned creating an LLC and PO Box to preserve anonymity - that's a good idea too in that it insulates you from any unwanted visitors. 

I am wondering if I should keep a similar script to that for first visit or do something different?

You can still find properties suitable as rentals in the Triangle area, it just depends on your numbers and your creativity, ha...
